Imperial College London has a pretty good rep, no? Even when compared to most universities in the UK?
- n4r9 5y agoDespite its name, it is considered a university.
- acta_non_verba 5y agoImperial college is just a part of the university of London. Like many words in the UK, sometimes “college” is used in a more historical meaning
- cinntaile 5y agoIt's not a part of the university of London anymore. But this is semantics really, apparently the GP meant a very specific type of college but didn't communicate this and colleges that are universities under the hood aren't part of that unstated definition.
- foldr 5y agoImperial College is not part of the University of London (it left in 2007). In any case, the ‘University of London’ is an almost meaningless umbrella institution. Its members function as separate universities for all practical purposes.
